Hi all!
I'd like to know the differences between hard links and soft links. I've already read the ln manpage, but i'm not quite sure of what i understood.
Does a hard link sort of copy the file to a new name, give it the same inode number and same rights?
What exactly should I do to do this:... (3 Replies)

gdcmscanner
gdcmscanner(1) GDCM gdcmscanner(1)NAME
gdcmscanner - Scan a directory containing DICOM files.
SYNOPSIS
gdcmscanner [options] directory
DESCRIPTION
The gdcmscanner is a command line tool to quickly extract value from a set of DICOM attribute in a DICOM File-Set.
PARAMETERS
-d --dir DICOM directory
-t --tag %d,%d DICOM tag(s) to look for
options
-p --print Print output.
-r --recursive Recusively descend directory.
general options
-h--help
print this help text and exit
-v--version
print version information and exit
-V--verbose
verbose mode (warning+error).
-W--warning
warning mode, print warning information
-E--error
error mode, print error information
-D--debug
debug mode, print debug information
Typical usageSimple usage
In order to display all the value for Patient Name (0010,0010) in the directory name gdcmData, simply do:
$ gdcmscanner -t 10,10 -d gdcmData -p
Complex usage
Because gdcmscanner does not support progress, you have to wait until all files are traversed to see any results. This is quite cumbersome,
on UNIX this can be worked around with the following trick:
$ find gdcmData -type d -exec gdcmscanner -t 10,10 -d {} -p ;
So all directory are locally traversed (no child directory are recursively traversed), which means results comes out much faster.
